Civil war has destroyed Cybertron, corrupting its core with Dark Energon, the blood of Unicron the Anti-Life. Fleeing the now lifeless planet, Optimus Prime and his crew of Autobots, Transformers seeking the peaceful restoration of Cybertron, are pursued across the cosmos by Megatron and his Decepticons, who are dedicated to the conquest of the galaxy, in their search for the Allspark, the artifact that gives all Transformers life.However, for some Transformers, there is still hope. A planet known as Nibiru has been discovered in a star system not far from Cybertron. Through the use of telescopic imagery and radiation analysis, it has been concluded that this planet contains Energon, the source of power for all Transformers, in great abundance. In response to this discovery, Autobot scientists have secretly begun the construction of a new Space Bridge made of components recovered from the defunct, broken Bridges to transport a crew to this new planet. Upon the completion of this new bridge, an Autobot ship known as the Titan is constructed and promptly sent through the bridge with a crew of Autobots led by General Grindcore, but they are pursued by a troop of Decepticons under the command of Magmatron in the Shadow Striker. Both ships sustain heavy damage in the ensuing battle and crash land on Nibiru.Both crews salvage the equipment from their ships, the Autobots constructing their headquarters along the East coast of the planet's main continent, while the Decepticons construct theirs in the West. They discover that Nibiru has an ocean composed of fresh water and atmosphere composed mostly of oxygen, which allows the planet to sustain various primitive, unintelligent life-forms. Mining operations begin almost instantaneously, and battles occur across the entire continent and beyond.Meanwhile, on Cybertron, the Decepticons construct their own spacebridge. More ships are sent to Nibiru by both factions, expanding the armies on both edges of the continent.The battle for Nibiru has begun, which side will you choose?

Map:

Cybertronia: The main continent. In the center lies a treacherous mountain range known by the Decepticons as the Underworld mountains and by the Autobots as the Slaughter mountains. Within the mountain range is an even more treacherous jungle home to massive insects and spiders with mandibles capable of slagging even the toughest armor. Its climate is mostly warm and humid with tropical forests spanning most of the landmass.

Kaos Islands: An Island chain that the Decepticons have their optics set on. It is rich with as-of-yet unclaimed Energon deposits. Its climate is drier than the main continent.

Matrix Archipelago: An archipelago that the Autobots are preparing to settle. Like the Kaos Islands, it is rich with Energon. Its climate is slightly colder than the main continent.

New Iacon: The Autobot settlement established after the Titan crashed. It is home to the majority of the Autobot forces. It's small for now, but Grindcore is looking to expand it.

New Kaon: The Decepticon settlement established from the wreck of the Shadow Striker. This serves as more of a military base than a settlement.

Roads: roads have been built to reach the various mining operations across the continent.

Autobot Mining Operation: these Energon deposits are being mined by the Autobots.

Decepticon Mining Operation: Likewise, these Energon deposits are being mined by the Decepticons.

Unclaimed Energon Deposit: These Energon deposits have yet to be claimed by either faction.

Rules:

1. You must post IC when you are speaking “in character,” and OOC when you are speaking “out of character.”

2. Don’t take control of other players’ characters without their permission.

3. Don’t kill other characters without the owner’s permission.

4. No god-modding. You can’t ignore physics and you especially can’t ignore your characters’ weaknesses. this includes auto-hitting.

5. Double posting not allowed. Period.

6. Not necessarily a rule, but remember that your characters aren't vastly superior to enemy NPC's. This means that your character can't just plow through the enemy's army.

7. And as always, all regular BZPower rules apply.

Character Rules:

1. Try to avoid size changing between modes. (IE a Leader can’t shrink down into a tape recorder when he transforms)

3. All alternate modes are Cybertronian. The living beings on Nibiru aren’t nearly intelligent enough to create anything technological for your character to scan.

4. Keep your character’s role realistic. If you choose to be a Soldier, you’re probably not going to be a battle medic.

5. No character that has been previously mentioned in official Transformers: Prime fiction is allowed. You may, however, make a similar character to an official one, as long as you use some level of originality. You may also create a character that exists in a different continuity (IE G1, Unicron Trilogy, etc.) as long as they don't exist in the Aligned/Prime continuity. For reference, I recommend TFwiki.

6. Your character is not omniscient. Everything they know has to be learned in some way.

7. And most importantly, your character MUST be approved by a staff member before you post as that character.

NameFaction (Autobot or Decepticon)Class (see list below)Appearance (What your character looks like)Alternate mode (Keep in mind that all alternate modes are Cybertronian)Weapons (Be realistic, a Scout can’t wield a massive warhammer)Skills (Things your character is good at. I will approve a few Shifters, but not too many)Traits (your character’s personality)Weakness (Every soldier has their limits)Bio (How and when did your character end up on Nibiru? Details about early life help but aren’t necessary)

Classes:

Minicon: The smallest Cybertronians in existence, being 6 to 7 feet tall. They can function as partners and sometimes even weapons for larger 'bots.

Scout: As the second smallest class, scouts usually range from 10 to 15 feet and primarily function as spies and infantry. They have access to special cloaking tech that allows them to become almost completely invisible.

Scientist: The next biggest class. Scientists range from 17 to 22 feet in height. They function as battle medics, giving them access to Energon Repair Rays. If they aren't medics, however, they usually stay off the battlefield and create new technology for use in the war

Leader: Leaders usually range from 25 to 30 feet tall, and primarily lead squads of their faction in battle. They have access to some of the more powerful weapons such as Ion Rifles and Fusion Cannons.

Soldier: Soldiers are the largest class, being 33 to 35 feet tall. They are the second most common soldier on the battlefield besides the scout and use some of the heavy weapons like Gatling Guns and Thermo Rocket Launchers.

Breaking the rules:

If you are caught breaking the rules, the following steps will be enacted:

First offense: a warning will be issued by any of the staff members.

Second offense: you will suffer a temporary ban from posting in the RPG

Third offense: Perma-ban, no questions asked.

Name: GrindcoreFaction: AutobotClass: LeaderAppearance: Grindcore is slightly bulkier than the average Leader, and is colored grey- green and brown. The wheels of his vehicle mode are visible in robot mode on his arms and legs and the cannons are mounted on his back, pointing upwards. He has many battle scars from his service in the Autobot army.Alternate Mode: Grindcore transforms into a heavy-duty combat truck with a pointed ram on the front and cannons mounted on the roof.Weapons: While in robot mode, Grindcore can flip the cannons of his vehicle mode over his shoulders and carries a Neutron Assault Rifle as his primary weapon and an Ion Rifle as his secondary. In vehicle mode, both weapons stow away in the “trunk.” His cannons fire similar projectiles to those of his Neutron Assault Rifle, but larger.Skills: Grindcore is an excellent military leader, having served in the Autobot Elite Guard for countless deca-cycles before Cybertron was corrupted. He also possesses great physical strength.Traits: Grindcore doesn’t have time for fun. He’s been a soldier and a worker since almost the minute he emerged from the Well. Strict discipline and seriousness has been pounded into him, so you’d better not get on his bad side.Weakness: Grindcore believes that he is the only hope for Cybertron and nothing will convince him otherwise, so he takes insults, even jokes, about his status very seriously.Bio: Grindcore was in the working caste of Cybertronian society when the war broke out. Eager to get out of the factories and into some action, he enlisted in the Autobot army and climbed the ranks until he was in the Elite Guard. He was chosen for the Nibiru mission because of his status and military prowess, and led the first squad of Autobots to the then newly-discovered planet. He currently oversees everything that goes on among the Autobots on Nibiru.Name: MagamatronFaction: DecepticonClass: LeaderAppearance: Magmatron is tall and dark red in coloration with some purple highlights. His fingers are clawed and his features are chiseled.Alternate Mode: Magamatron transforms into a large reptilian creature known as an Eviscerator.Weapons: In robot mode, Magmatron carries dual wielding Scatter Blasters. His claws are also charged with an electromagnetic current that scrambles enemy sensors. In vehicle mode, the tank's cannon fires large plasma bolts.Skills: Magmatron is incredibly keen with time and always knows the exact moment to initiate any battle plan.Traits: Magmatron is one of the most brutal and efficient soldiers and leaders that the Decepticons have on their side, rivaling even Megatron in this aspect.Weakness: Magmatron is extremely full of himself, and puts his own preservation before anything.Bio: Very little is known about Magmatron’s past, only that he became a Decepticon general shortly before the Core was corrupted. He was the first of the Decepticons to find out about the Nibiru mission via his spies and left with his crew without notifying any of the other Decepticon commanders. However, the discovery of Nibiru eventually spread to the rest of the Decepticon’s military, and the order to build the new spacebridge was enacted shortly after Shockwave got wind of the new planet. Name: WideloadFaction: AutobotClass: LeaderAppearance: Tall, bulky, and orange with blue and brown highlights. He has two wheels on each leg and two on his back. A rounded, brown faceplate covers his mouth.Alternate mode: A huge, boar-like creature known as a Charger.Weapons: A modified X-12 Scrapmaker that has four barrels. Two machine guns can be deployed in vehicle mode.Skills: Wideload is physically strong for a Leader, allowing him to carry the heavy weapon he uses. He is also known for his unconventional battle tactics that follow the logic "if you can't take it, break it."Traits: Wideload is probably the most optimistic 'Bot on the face of Nibiru. No matter how grave the situation, he always thinks on the positive side.Weakness: His large size makes him an easy target, plus his large weapon can hinder his movement.Bio: Wideload was known during the Great War for his way of getting things done. He served in the Wreckers for a time until he decided to jump on board the Titan and head for Nibiru.Name: Red AlertFaction: AutobotClass: ScientistAppearance: Of average height and build for a Scientist. His optics are covered by a red visor, while his primary colors are dark blue and white. The front end of his vehicle mode ends up on his chest in robot mode.Alternate mode: A Cybertronian jeep somewhat resembling a Hummer H2 with a rather bulky bumper modification.Weapons: In the place of a regular hand, Red Alert has a multitool that can convert into an energon repair ray, a battle pistol, and various other tools. In vehicle mode, his bumper opens to reveal an energy disk launcher that can also be used in robot mode.Skills: Red Alert is highly skilled in the medical field, repairing even the gravest of wounds to allow his comrades to live another day.Traits: Very serious and calm. However, he is often angered when his "work" is interrupted.Weakness: As with most medics, Red Alert is ill-equipped for battle.Bio: Red Alert lost his hand in a horrific battle in the Great War. The Autobots were defeated in this particular battle thanks to their lack of medical support, so Red Alert decided to become a medic himself. He boarded the Titan with his CMO, Painkiller.Name: MindwipeFaction: DecepticonClass: ScientistAppearanceAlternate Mode: A sleek, angular Cybertronian stealth jet, somewhat similar to WFC Starscream's jet mode.Weapons: Two wrist-mounted guns that double as blasters and EMP grenade launchers. His vehicle mode is equpped with missile pods that are mounted on his shoulders in robot mode.Skills: Mindwipe's processor can form a wireless link-up with others, effectively allowing him to read processors and control weaker ones. He is also a master of stealth.Traits: Some say that Mindwipe is more insane than Shockwave himself. While this may or may not be true, he frightens allies and enemies alike with his rasping voice and dark, manipulative demeanor.Weakness: Mindwipe is ill-equipped for fighting in broad daylight, and thus prefers the shadows.Bio: The origin of Mindwipe's unnatural abilities is unknown, although some say that they stem from one of Shockwave's experiments. The mind games he played with the Autobots (and sometimes even fellow Decepticons) earned him a reputation as one of the scariest fighters on Cybertron. He traveled to Nibiru with the second wave of Decepticon ships.Name: WaspinatorFaction: Decepticon/PredaconGender: MaleClass: SoldierAppearanceAlternate Mode: Stinger (giant wasp)Weapons: In robot mode, he wields a photon burst rifle and an EMP shotgun. He can also deploy a sword from his wrist that can overload his target's pain receptors on contact. Needless to say, this really hurts. In beast mode, this sword becomes his stinger and he can access his robot mode's weapons.Skills: Not many. He is, however, reasonably accurate with his weapons.Traits: Waspinator's own existence is torment for him, but he chugs on nevertheless. Mostly due to the fact that he's pretty dumb. He also speaks about himself in the third person.Weakness: His low intellect causes him to charge into battle without a plan.Bio: Waspinator was once an insane Decepticon named Wasp who escaped from an Autobot mental institution. He stowed away on one of the Decepticon ships on the second wave and was one of the first to receive the Predacon surgery. However, at that point, it was an unrefined process and his already damaged intellect was fractured beyond repair. He now wanders around Nibiru looking for anyone to unleash his pent-up rage upon. Name: GigatronFaction: Decepticon/Predacon Class: LeaderAppearanceAlternate mode: A purple Eviscerator.Weapons: A double-barreled EMP shotgun and a Torque Rifle (slightly less powerful than its G1 equivalent, of course). His hand can also convert into a jagged crushing claw.Skills : Military strategy and hand-to-hand combat. He is also very accurate with most firearms.Traits: He is cold and brutal, with few morals and high intelligence. Perhaps in spite of this, he is somewhat arrogant.Weakness: His armor isn't very explosive-resistant, and he's slightly arachnophobic, which is ironic considering how many Predacons choose Biters as their alt-forms.Bio: Very little is known about the Predacon commander. One day, he simply appeared in the medical offices in New Kaon and requested to be transformed into an Eviscerator, and since then, he climbed the ranks until he held the title of Commander of the Predacons.A legend that has spread among the ranks of Decepticons and Predacons alike tells that he and Magmatron were once of the same spark, until they were seperated; Magmatron took the more aggressive side of their mind, while Gigatron is more calm and collected. It may be true, considering how similar they are aside from that aspect.

Name: Hunter-SeekerFaction: DecepticonClass: LeaderAppearance: Hunter-Seeker has a black and white color-scheme, with features like his face and trim being white and most everything else being black. His face is sharp and angular; his eyes are colored a deep blue. His torso is slightly narrower than average for a leader, though it maintains the angular look of the rest of his body. He has ten appendages in total, two regular arms and the same number of legs are in the place you'd expect along his body. But he also some body parts that would not be out of place on a spider, he has an abdomen and six legs/arms that sprout from his back, these arms can be used for locomotion (climbing, lifting him up from the ground and running about etc) or manipulation (fighting, handling a weapon etc).Alternate mode: A fighter-interceptor. His legs fold into the wings, his abdomen and torso become the main body. He is weapons in the moderator include only his blasters, this mode is built for speed and interception, not prolonged battles. But six blasters firing at once is still an impressive sight, he won't hold up against dedicated soldiers, but against most everything else he can hold his own.Weapons: His six arms/legs can be used as dueling aids in a tight spot, but they are also capable of firing energy blasts making them a very formidable weapon indeed. He has not seen the need to add to his arsenal because of this.Skills: As his name indicates, Hunter-Seeker is extremely adept at locating various things. Be it a target, an energon deposit or a good tactical position. He never gets lost and has a near photographic memory when recalling events and conversations he has witnessed.Traits: While firmly on the Decepticon side of the war, he is not without a conscience. If one of his comrades parades over the moral event horizon, he won't hesitate to gut them on the spot. He insists his operations be conducted with a modicum of honor, he won't attack downed opponents and tends to let one's who give a good fight escape. He disapproves of torture and instead prefers to debate his enemies into joining him. That said, he is remarkably arrogant, he views most others as fools. Weakness: More fragile than other leaders and his primary weapon systems are not quite as durable as those of other leaders. He is also quite arrogant, viewing everyone around as fools. He tends to go into a battle expecting everyone else to fail.Bio: A data archivist before the war broke out, Hunter-Seeker elected to join the revolt. When the council put Optimus Prime in command instead of Megatron, Hunter-Seeker sided with Megatron over Optimus, his reasoning being that all remains of the old system had to be swept away before true changes could be made.He arrived on Nibiru with the Shadow Striker having served as its navigator during its journey. He was quickly put to work finding Energon deposits and at that task he excelled. He has seen several battles with the Autobots in his time and respects them as an enemy, but ultimately he is loyal to the Decepticon cause and will follow Magmatron's leadership. Unless of course his "esteemed" leader steps over the line in which case Hunter-Seeker would be forced to act.Name: Victory LeoFaction: AutobotClass: SoldierAppearance: A tall 'Bot, Victory Leo is bulky and sports three different colors, gold, black and red. His head is horned and his chest is quite large. His armor is the color of gold and his highlights are red and black. His has numerous scars and dents strewn about his skin, from a lifetime of war and battle.Alternate mode: His robotic form is robotic lion, it sports two nonfunctional wings and two blaster cannons. It is also quite fast. He can go berserk in this form due to the way in interacts with his mind, he does not have a modified T-cog and this form is more of a result of an experimental surgery. It was completely unintentional of course. In this mode he also gains a powerful bite attack and the powerful front claws he gains can rend through the toughest of metals.Weapons: Three large energy blasters, on built into his side and the other two mounted on wrists. These energy blasters are very powerful and more then one overconfident warlord has fallen to them. These weapons are part of his body and they are not easily removed, indeed, if they were removed, Leo would start spewing Energon at copious rates. This does not undermine their effectiveness however, first an enemy has to close the distance between them and Victory Leo....a difficult task to say the least.Skills: He is an excellent and disciplined soldiers. He can also quote everything ever written from memory. Well, not really, but it seems like it at times. He is also able to combine with Star Saber.Traits: Victory Leo is a warrior-poet. He can quote famous cybertronian literature whilst disemboweling an opponent. He tends to be silent about his alt-mode and continued prying might cause him to punch someone. He is extremely well-read and intelligent and likes nothing more then a good debate...or a good battle. Both are good and both at the same time is ideal. If you crush your enemies arguments while your crushing his throat, so much the better.Weakness: His weapons have a tendency to overload and in his alternate mode, he may go berserk and attack friend and foe with equal rage. He, naturally, dislikes discussing this and seeks to avoid it at all costs.Bio: Victory Leo has had an interesting life to say the least. First a member of the Council's Guard who vanished now and then for an archive binge, when the war began he became warrior for the Autobot cause, having seen the brutality of Megatron first hand. Victory Leo proved to be a professional soldier, who showed mercy when appropriate and brutal force when needed. He quickly fell in with Star Saber. He fought alongside him in many battles and eventually, underwent a surgery that would increase their power. Sadly, this surgery had an unintentional side-effect. His alt mode was forever changed and his mind along with it. Whenever he transforms, there is a chance he'll go berserk and attack anything in range.Nevertheless, he fought on, even after Optimus Prime fled the planet. Eventually however, his luck ran out. A 'Con warship caught up with him and he shot down over Nibiru. The small corvette he had been commanding is now little more then a wreck in the middle of the jungle, and Victory Leo lays dormant on the bridge, barely kept alive by an energon pump.

Name: FirestormFaction: AutobotsGender: FemaleClass: SoldierAppearance: Fittingly for a femme of her name, Firestorm’s primary color is bright scarlet, with dark grey undertones. Her alt-mode’s doors extend out from her shoulders into doorwings, though they do not grant flight. The four wheels of her alt-mode form her shoulder blades and pelvic cradle, and her light blue optics highlight her multiple battle scars.Alt.-Mode: Firestorm transforms into a Cybertronian sports car, similar in build to the Lamborghini Aventador.Weapons: In her bipedal mode, Firestorm wields a Scatterblaster as her primary weapon with an Energon Battle Pistol as back-up. In her alt-mode, she deploys a weapon similar to a Neutron Assault Rifle for vehicle-to-vehicle combat.Skills: Firestorm was literally born for warfare, and as such has adapted well to many forms of combat.Traits: Firestorm is young and eager to make a name for herself, though her exuberance is often tempered by her military discipline. She never shirks her duties and is fiercely loyal to the Autobot cause. She’s a little stiff and hard to like, though she is always respectful to her fellows. Her manner towards Decepticons is far different, of course, but that was to be expected.Weaknesses: Firestorm’s strength – her fighting experience in war – is her own weakness: she was raised by a military, and thus has few social skills. As well, her alt-mode isn’t very well adapted for off-roading, so she’s mostly confined to roads in vehicle mode.Bio: Firestorm was part of the last generation of Cybertronians that emerged from the Well before the Allspark was ejected from the planet. Like the majority of these mechs and femmes, she aligned with the Autobots and was born to fight in the war. She remained on the planet after the Ark and Nemesis left with the majority of the factions, and was part of the Autobot group that journeyed to Nibiru on the Titan.Name: Burning SkyFaction: DecepticonsGender: FemaleClass: LeaderAppearance: Burning Sky’s body is jet black in color, with veins of scarlet mapping over her and smoky-grey undertones. Spiky, butterfly-like wings extend from her back, and her fingers are like needles. (She bears a striking physical resemblance to the Decepticon Slipstream.)Alt.-Mode: Burning Sky transforms into a Cybertronian jet, the same kind used by the Stalker class.Weapons: In her bipedal form, Burning Sky uses an Ion Cannon as her primary weapon and an Energon Battle Pistol as her secondary. In her alt-mode, she uses proton missiles and machine guns.Skills: Burning Sky is a legendary dogfighter: back in the heyday of the war, she earned her designation by causing the fiery deaths of multiple enemy fliers.Traits: Outside of battle, Burning Sky is a femme of few words. Her loyalty is to the Decepticon cause itself and Megatron most of all. She tolerates her present commander at the moment, but if contradictory orders come from Shockwave she will not have a conflict of loyalties. She is somewhat brusque to others, but has strong bonds with her fellow fliers.Weaknesses: Burning Sky, like many fliers, suffers from claustrophobia.Bio: Called Noir before the war, Burning Sky served in the Cybertronian Air Force beforehand and chose to ally with Megatron early on. She remained with Shockwave’s warriors after the Exodus, and was dispatched to Nibiru on the Shadow Striker as aerial support.Name: PainkillerFaction: AutobotsGender: FemaleClass: ScientistAppearance: Painkiller’s body is as white as snow, with a red stripe indicating herself as a medic going down her chest. Two of her wheels form her pelvic cradle, while the other two are stowed under the hood of her alt-mode that forms her chestplate, giving her a build similar to a human female. Her dark-blue optics are no-nonsense.Alt.-Mode: Painkiller transforms into a sports car, similar in build to a Jaguar C-X16.Weapons: Painkiller uses an Energon Repair Ray in the field; in self-defense she uses a Photon Burst Rifle.Skills: Painkiller is a skilled medic, in and out of the medbay – she is able to create temporary fixes for battle injuries if she isn’t able to fix it on the spot.Traits: Painkiller is tough-as-nails and won’t back down if challenged by anyone – she’d give Magmatron himself the shakedown if he got between her and her patient. That said, she cares a great deal about her patients, and will put her life on the line to protect them.Weaknesses: Her devotion to her patients is unshakeable – she will let herself bleed out to try and keep a soldier alive to fight another day.Bio: Painkiller was a young medical student in Kalis at the time of the War – she fled the city at the time that it consumed the place, and went straight to Iacon, joining up with the Autobots immediately after. She worked under Ratchet until the Exodus, and arrived on Nibiru in the second wave of Autobot ships.Name: ShatterglassFaction: DecepticonsGender: MaleClass: SoldierAppearance: Shatterglass is bright green in color, and has blazing red optics in a black face. His oversized wheels are present in his shoulders and legs. He’s taller than most.Alt.-Mode: Shatterglass transforms into a powerful vehicle similar to a monster truck.Weapons: He wields an X12 Scrapmaker with an EMP Shotgun as backup.Skills: He is incredibly strong – most Scouts will be killed or seriously damaged from his blows, while Minicons are terminated from them. Those bigger than that will be damaged pretty badly, depending where he hits.Traits: Shatterglass is cold-Sparked and brutal to Autobots. He’s friendlier to fellow Decepticons, but not by much.Weaknesses: To put it mildly, Shatterglass is not the sharpest knife in the block. He’s easily fooled.Bio: Shatterglass, formerly called G-02, was a gladiator in the rings of Kaon, and one of Megatron’s earliest followers. He was part of his crack gladiator corps, and arrived on Niribu on the second wave of Decepticon ships.

Name: TurmoilFaction: DecepticonClass: SoldierAppearance:ImageAlternate mode: A huge tank with a sort of spiked plow at the front. It is heavily armoured, and the spiked plow is usually covered in Energon and broken parts of his enemies. His cannon falls into place on the top, with his other arm forming armour around it. His legs and body form the main bulk of the tank, while his shoulder armour moves forward to become the plow.Weapons: In place of his right arm lies a huge cannon that fires highly explosive balls of plasma. This weapon is what has made him famous, since it has been the bane of many an Autobot. He also has small machine guns on his shoulders, that have very limited ammo and are rarely used.Skills: Straight up killing and destruction, and little else. Despite lacking any leadership skills whatsoever, he is often put in command of small detachments just because of his shocking talent for destruction.Traits: Turmoil hates you. What's that, you've never met him? He still hates you. His only true passion is the brief moment before his prey's broken body is blasted into oblivion, when he gets a glimpse at the fear in the Autobot's eyes at the moment they realise their pathetic lives have come to an end.Weaknesses: His size can be a disadvantage, as it makes him slow and easy to hit. He also has a knack for grossly underestimating his foes. His cannon also requires a short recharge time after every shot.Bio: Unknown.Name:CrosscutFaction: None (formerly Star Seekers)Class: ScoutAppearance: A mostly dark blue robot with a few parts of white and highlights of yellow (in typical neutral fashion). In some areas the blue doesn't quite match, as the colour has faded and been repainted using the natural resources found on Nibiru. His face has a mouthplate and he wears an actual fabric hood (and somewhat of a cape) over the top, that has tears and holes all around it. Some melted pieces of head armour plating poke through one of the holes, hinting at why he covers his face.Alternate mode: A robotic Sabretooth tiger-like creature that shares his colour scheme. In this form he has a pair of Neutron Assault Rifles mounted on his hips and incredibly sharp claws and teeth.Weapons:Dawnbreaker- A golden sword which has the same yellow highlights as him, along with a glowing crystal in its quillon block. It uses his own reserve energy reserves to superheat the blade, making it easier to slice through metal. When not in his possession (such as when dropped or stolen) the glow of the highlights and crystal vanishes, and it is reduced to little more than a regular sword.Ol' Greg- A sniper rifle that does a little bit more damage than a regular Null Ray, and has the words 'Ol' Greg' inscribed in white lettering along it's right side.Skills: Sneaking, effectively making the most of what he's got at hand (including terrain), infiltration, espionage, melee combat, long range combat (like, really long range).Traits: Forever an outgoing, light-hearted 'Bot, Crosscut has never been like his fellow colnists. In fact, he's never acted very much like anyone he's met, as his processor has been damaged since he was but a protoform, causing him to be more than a little insane. It is a common misconception that he takes nothing seriously, but this fallacy is overwritten by his determination and sincerity in battle. Although multiple experiences in his rarely-mentioned past have taught him to be cautious of the world's perils, he retains his love for exploration and adventure. He loves company and attention, often acting silly and unpredictable to put on a show for his companions, but despite this, he won't hesitate to stab anyone in the back if it will get heat off his own.Weakness: Since he has no mid range weapons, he kind of sucks at firefights, this causing him to sometimes rush into situations that are beyond his control.Bio: Crosscut began his life on one of the colonies that was cut off from Cybertron. As enraged as many others he knew, he was one of the first members of the Star Seekers, pirates led by Thundertron who hated all Cybertronions. Unfortunately the anger at Cybertron wore off for Crosscut, and he decided it was time for a change in leadership. His mutiny was a horrible failure, with all his conspirators being shot and him suffering a far worse fate: Being marooned on Nibiru. His name was wiped from the Star Seeker records and lost to the stars.He has been in stasis for hundreds of years, but the recent carnage on the surface has awoken him, and the world of Nibiru, and the universe, may never be the same again.

Name: ShatterquakeFaction: AutobotClass: Originally Leader, but it is now almost impossible to tell.Appearance: Shatterquake has been rendered almost unrecognizable by the strange experiments performed on him. Only his head remains mostly unchanged.In robot mode, the beast mode head splits with each half forming a shoulder. The legs of his beast mode shift to form the legs of his bot mode, the claws adorning his knees. The tail becomes his arms, with his beast mode's arms tucked away in his chest. In contrast with most Autobots, his optics glow red. His helm is dark grey, with an optional faceplate. His faction symbol is emblazoned on his chest, while his right shoulder bears an incredibly faded Wreckers symbol.Alternate mode: His altmode, previously an artillery vehicle of cybertronian design, is now that of a reptilian creature native to Nibiru. It is approximately one and a half times as tall as a scout, and a full head above a soldier. It walks primarily on it's hind two legs, with it's arms ending in what could almost be called hands. The 'fingers end in rather long claws. It's legs are strong, and also tipped by claws. A long tail stretches out behind it, used for balance, Topping the long neck of his altmode is a head reminiscent of a T. Rex, with sharp rending teeth and a pair of horns curling behind it's head. It has a crimson and black coloration.Weapons: In alt mode, his primary weapons are his teeth and claws, However, his cannon is stowed inside his beast mode's throat, allowing him to fire it through his mouth.In robot mode, Shatterquake wields a shotgun, which is capable of firing six metal slugs before it needs to be reloaded. For added fire power, the energy cannon used in altmode is stored on his shoulder. It takes much longer to fire, but it's blasts are quite destructive. The 'spine' of his beast mode becomes a diamond edged sword.Skills: Shatterquake is not the one you go to for style or careful aim. He doesn't really care how the job gets done, as long as it's accomplished. He is quite capable in combat, as befitting his former status. He prefers mid-range combat, though he is cpable of hand to hand if needed. His swordsmanship is terrifyingly effective but it lacks what most would call style.Traits: Shatterquake is never one to shy from combat. Nor is he one to remain quiet about his opinions. His history has given him a tendency to provide anecdotes and comparisons from his past, often surprising those around him with his observations.Weakness: Shatterquake often clashes with commanders he feels are inadequate, and doesn't hesitate to voclaize his opinions. It isn't at all surprising, when one considers his previous tour of duty. He also is at an extreme disadvantage in long-range combat.Bio: Shatterquake was a Wrecker, though he left the group when he decided to go off-world. Fortunately for him, he left shortly before the events that killed all but a few of the group.Shortly after arriving on Nibiru, Shatterquake was one of the first to go missing. He was captured, and was one of the organic being's first successes, though he hadn't quite refined the process yet. It was an extremely painful procedure, and the being thought him offline. He was discarded, barely clinging to life. Technically, nothing was physically wrong with him, so he was able to return from the brink. He had been gone long enough the Autobots think him dead, and they'll be in for quite a surprise....Name: Star SaberFaction: AutobotClass: SoldierAppearance: Star Saber has two distinct robot modes. The first is roughly half the height of a scout, with a blue torso, white arms, and red legs. The cockpit forms a shield on his left arm. His head resembles Optimus', albeit with a visor. Overall, his appearance in this form is rather generic. His second robot mode is formed when he combines with the V-Star. His arms and legs are gray, with blue upper thighs. The cannons from his vehicle mode protrude from the top of either shoulder. His chest is red with a gold pattern reminiscent of a jet's wings. Outside of combat, his head is merely an upscaled version of his smaller form's. When in combat, a red faceplated helmet with black antennae is worn.Alternate mode: His smaller form's is a red fighter jet, significantly smaller than most. More commonly, he is hooked up to the V-Star, forming a much larger cybertronian jet. The cannons on his shoulder protrude on either side of the cockpit. The V-Star can be summoned remotely, though it taskes time to arrive.Weapons: In his smaller vehicle mode, he has access only to a single, small cannon. In the larger mode, he has access to the cannons near his cockpit. The weapons can fire in quick succession with less power, or can charge for stronger blasts. He also has a small payload of bombs he can drop. In his small robot mode, he has a scaled down version of his sword, and a single pistol. His larger form has access to the cannons on his shoulder, a rifle that fires metal bullets, and his signature sword.Skills: Star Saber is an extremely skilled swordsman, as it is his favored weapon. He is a capable commander, to the degree that he was once considered eligible to become a Prime. His biggest skill, however, is the ability to combine with his partner Victory Leo into Victory Saber.Traits: Bold, courageous, loyal, and intelligent. He would fight until he dropped if he thought it would end the war, or keep people safe.Weakness: Instinct to protect others. Also, if one were to catch him away from Victory Leo or the V-Star, he would be hardpressed to fight back.Bio: Star Saber joined up with the Autobots the instant the war broke out. In an effort to increase his effectiveness, he volunteered to be modified to combine with the V-Star. Even later, he would undergo another operation to allow him to combine with Victory Leo.He quickly proved to be an incredibly effective command, putting him on the list of people eligible to become a Prime. He actually made the Council take his name off of the list, wanting to prove you didn't need to be a Prime to be a good leader. He opted to travel to Nibiru, but in a stasis pod, only to be activated when it needed to be. He believed that his presence would escalate the fighting, due to the power of Victory Saber. The pod can only be activated either with a proper authorization code, or when it's software deems the situation to meet the parameters Star Saber specified.Name: ShadowshotFaction: NeutralClass: Hard to tell, but closest to a small leader.Appearance: Shadowshot is a bit shorter than the average leader, and a heck of a lot thinner. She carries no visible weaponry, and her form could best be described as sleek. Primarily, she is black with blueish gray accents. Her optics are a bright violet, and her vehicle mode wheels store away on her back.Alternate mode: Shadowshot transforms into a sleek, cybertronian motorcycle. In this form, she is just the right size to be ridden by a scout, scientist, or small leader.Weapons: Shadowshot carries no visible weapons, nor does she have any built into her body. However, she is easily the best armed cybertronian on the planet. She carries a small arsenal of weapons with her wherever she goes. She accomplishes this by way of a subspace storage locker, based on the same principle as Optimus Prime's ion rifle. She can will any item from this locker to her hand, though it takes a large amount of energy to do so. The bigger the item, the more energy it takes. In addition to her weapons, she has a few very specific items. Namely, several armor components. Two attach to her legs, thus increasing height. Two mount to her back, and function as an extra set of arms, a helmet, and a few torso components.Skills: Subspace storage locker, incredible agility.Traits: Shadowshot is very much a strange person. She has no side in this war, and doesn't even consort with other neutrals. She doesn't got out of her way to fight, but if you anger her, she will end you. She makes a hobby of collecting weapons.Weakness: Shadowshot's best ability, her storage locker, is also her biggest weakness. While she can summon small things, like pistols with ease, bigger things take greater energy. In an effort to combat this, she was enhanced for greater energy output. It was only half successful. Summoning anything bigger than a scrapmaker starts to take a toll on her, and summoning her armor saps her strength dramatically. And the armor itself, upon activation, leeches massive amounts of energy from her. If she isn't careful, she might simply collapse on the battlefield, unable to keep going. And on top of all of it, her armor is thinner than the average cybertronian.Bio: Shadowshot doesn't talk much about her past.It won't do much good to look in any database, either. The only references to her describe merely a shadow, one that struck fast when soldiers entered her territory. What survivors there are could describe little of her appearance. She was the pet project of one side or another, but she won't reveal which. She treats both sides with equal ambivalence. Likewise, she avoids them equally, because she knows that both would try and find out how she worked. And neither side would be pleasant about it.

I believe you find life such a problem because you think there are the good people and the bad people. You are wrong, of course. There are, always and only, the bad people, but some of them are on opposite sides.

IC: Grindcore (New Iacon, two decacycles or twenty Nibiru days after initial landing)Grindcore gazed out upon the land from the balcony of New Iacon's command tower. It seemed only cycles ago that he had been attempting to calm his panicked crew as the Titan spiraled through Nibiru's atmosphere. But since then, the Autobots had salvaged the massive ships cargo, tons upon tons of metal and other building materials, and constructed this glorious city to run their operations. Already, several Energon deposits had been claimed as mines.All was not well, however. The Slaughter Mountains in the center of the continent contained a forest filled with deadly creatures such as giant insects and other mutated creatures. Decepticons made daily forays on the outposts that had been established. And, to top it all off, soldiers from both factions were disappearing without explanation. In other words, Grindcore had a lot to do.

IC: Firestorm | New Iacon | Bored out of her processerOn the outskirts of the outpost, the young scarlet and grey Autobot called Firestorm stood on guard duty, which she swore had to have been the longest shift she'd ever pulled. At this point, cleaning her Scatterblaster and Energon Battle Pistol had gotten monotonous -- which slightly alarmed the femme. Just how many of these shifts had she taken?... well, it could've been worse. She could've been one of those scouting teams that had gone to the Slaughter Mountains and come back scrapped. Still. A little action wouldn't be unwelcome around here. Even driving to one of the mining posts would be a nice change of pace.An Autobot who'd been sparked to be a warrior had to be better for more than just guard duty, right?-Inferna

IC (New Kaon, Hunter-Seeker)Hunter-Seeker was convinced he was the only competent being left on the planet. He was currently residing in a communications head near the center of New Kaon. The crash had been unavoidable, mostly because certain parties had been extremely overaggressive in their pursuit of the Autobots. He'd done what he could to save the vessel, but they'd been well and truly helpless by that point. They'd managed to craft this city out of the crash site, but the communications network was being held together with what amounted to willpower and hope. Hunter-Seeker had been working around the clock trying to maintain it and as usual his efforts were going unnoticed by the glitch-heads who were running this facility. The communications hub itself was fairly well put together, but the guts were a mess.It was to be expected of course. All Hunter-Seeker could do was try his best to correct the mistakes of others. He was currently leg deep in exposed circuits and processors, trying to track down a short in the system. The monitors and communication devices that lined the walls and panels of the hub were all silent, black. He'd managed to rig up a temporary comm net to make up for the duration of the shut down of the hub, but that was even more unreliable then the network was. Hopefully it would be worth it and the constant disruptions to the system would cease. He'd put in an order for new parts and circuits, but that had gone unnoticed as well. So here he was, forced to try to jury-rig a viable and reliable system. He thought he could use the main processor cores as a crutch for communications network and thus far, it looked like he was right.If this worked, then maybe they could get something done around here. He wasn't a scientist, so the system would likely operate below it's potential, but hopefully, it wouldn't be a complete failure either.

IC: MagmatronSuddenly, a voice rang out through the room Hunter-Seeker was in."Hunter-Seeker," it commanded, "I must see you in my quarters immediately."The voice unmistakably belonged to Magmatron, and sounded very angry.

IC (Hunter-Seeker)Hunter-Seeker jerked upwards for a moment, slamming his head into the bottom of a nearby screen. Somehow he suspected he wasn't going to be praised for his initiative in attempting to improve the communication system. That was the story of his life, he tried to improve things and make sure certain tasks were done correctly and instead, he was demoted, scolded or on one memorable occasion, thrown into space for it. With a sense of quiet resignation that he had perfected by practice over the years, he made his way towards Magmatron's quarters. It was only a short walk away from the communications hub, so he didn't have to much time to brood over what was coming.

IC: Burning Sky | New Kaon | Reporting inTechnically as the leader of the fliers on this planet, Burning Sky didn't need to pull flight patrols like the rest of her Seekers. However, since it kept her mind off the fact they were stuck on this mudball, along with all her other doubts that had been building up in her processer, she pulled them anyway. Besides, it was better than being stuck in the confines of the outpost. No Seeker worth his or her wings would ever chose the ground over the air.Gliding in on an open, protected spot within the outpost, Burning Sky triggered her ingrained transformation and landed on her pedes, taking a moment to recalibrate her systems to suit standing upright before she began to walk towards the door inside, heel struts clicking. Sending a data packet that reported her return for the logs, she headed towards the mess hall to refuel.Curiously enough, her rations seemed to have increased since they had left Cybertron. Not that she was complaining about it.OOC: The ration-increase figures back to a mini-RP Basilisk and I did while waiting for the approvals to be in, just so you know. -Inferna

IC: Magmatron (New Kaon)Magmatron's face bore a look of obviously false happiness as Hunter-Seeker walked into the room."Glad to see you made it," Magmatron said, "what was it you were doing? Nevermind, it probably wasn't important. What is important is the reason I called you here."The Decepticon commander stood up from his throne and stepped over to the window that overlooked their settlement."Tell me," he asked, "have you heard the rumors?"

IC (Hunter-Seeker)"I've heard many things. But I know several patrols went missing and that the Autobots weren't responsible. They tend to leave larger pieces behind." Hunter-Seeker's voice had a guarded tone to it. He found Magmatron unpredictable. That was a good trait in a strategist but not a good trait in a commander that one wished to avoid angering. As commanders went, he was far from the worst. At least he wasn't utterly insane like Shockwave. That was always a plus.

IC: MagmatronMagmatron looked over his shoulder at his second-in-command."Then why haven't you done anything about it?" he growled, "I am losing countless troops every cycle and this...whatever it is isn't helping."He sighed."Do you have any idea why our troops are disappearing?" he inquired in a more calm tone.

IC (Hunter-Seeker)"I've been working on improving our communications network. The faster our soldiers can contact us, the faster we discover the cause behind these incidents. Granted, spotty communication channels are not solely to blame here. As it stands, we have no evidence beyond a few....pieces left behind. We have no idea what we're up against. I would suggest bombarding the entire area with Tox-En, but we have no idea if that will be effective against whatever is behind this." Hunter-Seeker was seething inwardly, though his face and tone showed no sign of this. His work was quite important, it was, in his opinion, about the only competent work being done on the planet.

IC: Magmatron"Very well," Magmatron replied with a wave of his hand, "go fix the communications."He trudged back to his throne and placed a hand on his forehead. The current situation was not good. Not good at all.

IC (Hunter-Seeker)"As you command sir. It will be operating efficiently, or at least, passably, within the hour." Hunter-Seeker forced himself to bow before he turned to exit the building. The lost patrols were unexceptionably disturbing and if the communications upgrade did not help matters, he would as always, have to fix the problem himself.

IC: Turmoil (Decepticon Mining Operation)Rain.Clean, uncompromising... And cold. Much like the towering figure standing amidst the downpour. His features were shrouded by mist, but the glowing highlights on his body and his silhouette would be instantly recognisable to Autobot and Decepticon alike. It could strike fear into the hearts of both.Turmoil was evil's name. And today wasn't too different from any other day, for him at least. For the severely wounded Autobot at his feet, however, it was the beginning of the end of his life.Energon flowing from the gaping hole in their side, they wailed. "Stop! I beg you!"If Turmoil was the kind of guy who smiled (or had a mouth, for that matter), this would be a perfect time for him to do so. "You... Beg? Where's the brave, heroic Autobot who taunted and spied on our little mining operation, hmm?""You don't need to- Gaak!" Turmoil grabbed the scout by the neck."I don't need to what? Prolong your suffering? Believe me, this could get much worse." and with that, he tore the Autobot's head from their shoulders (along with an assortment of armour pieces and wires), and threw their broken corpse to the ground, where it sparked feebly before finally being extinguished by the rain.A few Decepticon miners were watching, some slightly sickened by the torture, others entertained, but most were passive; watching an Autobot get killed was more interesting than drilling and digging nonstop."Get back to work, all of you!" barked Turmoil.They weren't sure what he would do if they hadn't obeyed, but they weren't going to stick around to find out. They scurried off to fulfill the dull tasks they were performing before the fight.Turmoil bent down and pried a surveillance device from the scout's lifeless body. He installed it into his own and flicked through what they had seen... Nothing. He sighed with frustration, but didn't destroy the device. Magmatron might find some use for it.He flopped down to the ground, and as he did so, panels on his form slid effortlessly from one place to another, until a tank hovered in his place, and drove off to return to New Kaon.

IC: Burning Sky | New Kaon | Looking for EntertainmentLike birds, Seekers were a social bunch. While they didn't form flocks like some of Cybertron's wildlife had before the War had made them extinct, there were those that formed groups of three called trines that, for the most part, kept together. While useful, Burning Sky had never felt the urge to form or join one of these groups, especially since she did her best flying and fighting alone.That said, with most of her Seekers out, she had very few people to converse with, making her refueling extremely short. Without feeling the need to go into recharge, she had few options of entertainment. She got it wherever she got, though. Hence why, when Hunter-Seeker returned to the communications center, he found the Aerial Commander leaning in the doorway, eyeing the mess of circuitry with her blood-red optics. "Just how in Primus' name did it get this messy?" she asked in the snarkiest tone she could afford, knowing it'd get a rise out of the arrogant SIC.OOC: SIC = second in command. I figure that Burning Sky's third in command (3IC) since she's the other Leader-class Decepticon around here. =P-Inferna

IC (Hunter-Seeker)Hunter-Seekers voice was thick with sarcasm. "I thought it would be a good idea to disable it and wallow in this poor excuse for circuitry for a few cycles. What do you think happened to it?! Evidently, not only am I the only competent administrator upon this planet, but I must also be the only competent technician as well. This poor excuse for a communications network had a habit of shorting out whenever someone so much as tapped it. Then there was the spotty coverage and lag....but of course, I'm the only one who used this device called a mind and applied it to fixing the problem. Everyone else is busy stroking their own egos."

IC: Burning Sky | New Kaon | Needling Hunter-SeekerWhile the droll expression on the flier's face didn't change, inwardly she was smirking at how well he'd risen to the bait. "Or out on patrol. Or out mining Energon. Or out doing one of the other things needing to be done around here," she added dryly, starting to straighten up against the doorway. OOC: Any idea if there's anyone else planning to come in? Any profiles being approved?-Inferna

IC (Hunter-Seeker)"The difference between their work and mine can be summed up in one word. Competence. I'm amazed some of you lot manage to find your hands without my assistance. Those of you who aren't blinded by blood lust think technology and system maintenance is something that happens to other bots." Hunter-Seeker snarled in return. His back was to Burning Sky and his hands were busy patching some wires to a processing unit. He'd rigged up a connection to the main base processors earlier, now it was only a matter of reassembling everything.

OOC (Since I have none yet. =P): Someone convince me to join this before I crack on my own, so I have someone to blame when I'm swamped by three different RPGs. =PAlso, someone give me a basic run-down of Transformers in general. Never got too into it.

OOC: Burning Sky, Basilisk; we've been over this already. IC: Burning Sky | New Kaon | Needling H-SFor a moment the flier was tempted to ram her fist into the back of Hunter-Seeker's helm. She'd never really liked the former data-archivist, and had avoided contact with him up until they had traveled here. His attitude grated her nerves like sand in her joints.The moment passed, and she unclenched her servoes. They'd already scrapped before, on the ship before they'd crashed on this planet, and as they'd narrowly managed to talk their way out of detainment, she wasn't eager in doing the same dance again.A rush of air cycled through her systems as she fell silent. She was not savvy with computers, so she would be of little help, but she couldn't think of anything else to do.-Inferna

OOC (Since I have none yet. =P): Someone convince me to join this before I crack on my own, so I have someone to blame when I'm swamped by three different RPGs. =PAlso, someone give me a basic run-down of Transformers in general. Never got too into it.

OOC: Okay, here's the basic info you need to know:Primus is the "God" of the Transformers universe and Unicron is his evil brother. Primus transformed himself into the planet Cybertron long ago and created the original Thirteen Primes to inhabit it. The Well of All Sparks was created to give birth to new Transformers and contained a relic known as the Allspark. Without the Allspark, new Transformers cannot be created. All Transformers function by consuming a substance called Energon and have a Spark that turns that Energon into energy (so basically, a Spark is a Transformer's heart) . Eventually, tensions grew over the caste system that Cybertronian society used, causing two factions to form: the Autobots, led by Optimus Prime, and the Decepticons, led by Megatron. The Allspark was ejected into space to prevent Megatron from using its power. To end the war, Megatron corrupted Cybertron's core with Dark Energon, the blood of Unicron. When Optimus Prime traveled into the core to repair the damage, he was given the Matrix of Leadership, a powerful device created by Primus. The Dark Energon corruption forced most of the Transformers currently on Cybertron to leave the planet in search of more Energon to remedy the core.Aaand, that's pretty much it

IC (Hunter-Seeker)"Let us see...connect the mainframes here...." Hunter Seeker was back in his own little (incredibly arrogant) world. He connected a few wires and sealed up a few panels and then, quite suddenly, the whole communications hub came alive. "Excellent. That should get rid of the lag and spotty coverage at the very least. Hopefully we won't lose anymore patrols before we can respond." He drew himself upwards, eyeing his handiwork. "Incidentally, you haven't noticed anything...odd...on your patrols have you?"

IC: Burning Sky | New Kaon | Communications CenterBy now the 3IC had been examining the tips of her servoes, making sure they were sharp. "Depends on how you define 'odd'," she remarked casually, irritation forgotten for now but not looking up as she spoke. "Everything carbon-based on this planet is 'odd'."-Inferna

IC (Hunter-Seeker)"Lets say...something that could cause a patrol to vanish with nary a trace beyond some loose energon and the odd limb left behind." Hunter-Seeker would have added in a snide comment about drawing her a picture, but he didn't want a repeat of the last incident anymore then her.

IC: Burning Sky | New Kaon | Communications CenterFurrowing her optic ridges, Burning Sky turned her helm to look at her current companion, lowering her arm. "No, nothing. Some of my Seekers have reported seeing things on their patrols, but they aren't consise enough to give an idea of what's making the groundbound patrols disappear."-Inferna

IC (Hunter-Seeker)"Lovely. Of course, it's to be expected. Primus forbid someone develop something resembling competence and record it for later viewing." Hunter Seeker sighed. "Regardless. We have bigger problems to deal with. The Autobots currently control the majority of this planet's Energon deposits. With the recent...incidents...it is unlikely that they will expect us to attack their mines. But I suspect whatever is scraping our patrols won't hold up to the concentrated firepower of a Seeker wing with Vehicon support. I plan to present a plan for an offensive to Magmatron. Can I count on your support?"

IC: Burning Sky | New Kaon | Communications Center"Unquestionably," the flier replied. For a moment she reconsidered retracting the statement and editing it into something that wouldn't stoke her companion's arrogance, then decided to just go with it. After all, she'd come out the better in their altercation, so she would probably do so again if push came to shove.-Inferna

IC (Hunter-Seeker)"Excellent. If this goes well then we might just win this war relatively quickly. After the seizure of one of the Autobot energy mines, our primary objective should be denying them access to any other resources. Can your Seekers keep the skies contested?" Hunter-Seeker paused for a moment and eyed the monikers. "Operating at....eighty-five percent. Better then the fifty-four percent we had earlier."

Yes, Zyke did approve this over PM.Name: Alphonus Prime Faction: AutobotsClass: LeaderAppearance: http://www.majhost.c...ime_upgrade.png(Without suit)http://www.majhost.c..._prime_suit.png(With suit)Alternate mode: http://images.wikia....Prime_Truck.pngThe smokestacks condense and fold into machine guns. (Without Trailer) http://www.majhost.c...nus_trailer.png(With Trailer)Weapons: The twin machine guns from his vehicular mode, a gigantic variant of the Ion Rifle with a scope http://osmelhoresdostransformersblog.files.wordpress.com/2011/05/transformers-3-optimus-prime-gun-close-up-03.jpg?w=590 (With a scope), and two large Energon-heated swords. Rifle is too big to store in arm, but he can carry it in one hand. He deploys it from his back. His trailer from vehicle mode converts into a stationary, ring-shaped armory where he can store extra weaponry (Though the space is severely limited by its other function.) Its other function is to transform into an armored flight suit/battle suit that allows him to fly at a decent speed, retains access to all normal weapons, and grants large barrage cannons on his forearms, each with slightly greater firepower than his Ion Rifle. From his back he may deploy a miniature railgun that is so large he must hold it with both hands and integrate the back of the weapon into his chest to not drop it due to weight. It has only three shots and is also only available when he wears his trailer. His trailer's use is limited by high Energon consumption, and so he only uses it when battles grow difficult.Skills: Very strong, and good with his weapons. He can't use anything he finds as a weapon, but he can use almost any weapon he finds. Sturdy on his feet, and can jump reasonably well. Most Decepticons would want to avoid unarmed combat with him as well. Good flier when he has what is needed to do so.Traits: He's learned from experience, but can be impatient at times. Kind, but usually serious. He will make a sarcastic joke every now and then, but he has a good enough lid on it to fit in with other Primes. (In other words, a self-insert. He'd do what I would in most situations.)Weaknesses: He's not particularly fast, and like all Leaders and Soldiers, his size makes it easy to aim at him. His dodges mainly revolve around spins and jumps. Running just won't do it. In vehicular mode, his speed picks up a bit in proportion to others, but not much. In areas where the enemy has great freedom of movement, and there is little to no enclosure, he just can't keep up. (Unless the enemy is of a similar type.) When he has his trailer, his vehicle mode slowness is an even bigger problem, though when it is a suit his flight has a decent speed.Bio: Alpha wasn't very skilled in his early days, but he never quit. He'd get discouraged, even take long breaks, and his coordination was screwy. Many would ask him why he fought when he wasn't good at it. His answer? To become good at it. Eventually, they gave up on discouraging him, aside from the occasional joke. He charged on, and one day stormed a Decepticon ship. Though he had failed, his squad lost no one, and he resolved to try to go on. This got the attention of the Council, who named him a Prime for having the determination to go on. Meaning for him to be a backup Prime, he never outranked or equaled Optimus, especially as he was made a Prime soon after Optimus. With the new powers bestowed upon him, he succeeded in destroying that same ship, and returning with its cargo--a large weapons cache. He took his Ion Rifle from that same cache, modified it for personal use, and went on. Still, he was impatient, and in an effort to attack Megatron himself, he was lured into a trap. Forcibly put into stasis, he was sent away into space, falling to his own flaws as the Council had so repeatedly observed Primes do. He then crashed on Cybertronia centuries later, and emerged. He re-joined the Autobots, oddly serving under Grindcore despite being a Prime, as he did not believe he was fit to lead all the Autobots when his own impatience put him in such a predicament.He became second in command of all Autobots on Nibiru, and while his methods earned him chastisement from Grindcore on occasion, he completed his missions well with one exception that he really prefers not to speak of but everyone knows about. After entering a simulated contest, he won, earning a reformat that changed his outward appearance (but kept the same strength and weakness in all areas) and made him compatible with a truck trailer that converted into a battlesuit, and the few extra weapons that came with it.

oocEvo (what? i like that name....)Faction: autobotClass: scoutAppearance: small blue and white robot. very thin and agile looking. humanoid.Alternate mode: small cybertronian jet with four wings.Weapons: pair of daggers for getting up close and personal.Skills: close combat and speed are the main skills.Traits: quick thinker, fast reflexes.Weakness: his quick thinking has a way of biting his rear end at times.Bio: came to this "retched slime ball" following some of the other bots. at the time he was just fleeing his planet, and didn't really think fighting would be apart of the equation. unfortunately enough, it was. at this point he's just hiding from any decepticons. hoping this will all blow over.good? when can i start?

OOC: With those modifications, I give TNG's Prime my approval.I will note, this is a one time thing. This the only Prime I am comfortable allowing into the RP. If you wanted to play one, well, I'm sorry. But it would clash with the lore, I can buy a backup Prime. But not a legion of them.

I believe you find life such a problem because you think there are the good people and the bad people. You are wrong, of course. There are, always and only, the bad people, but some of them are on opposite sides.

IC: Burning Sky | New Kaon | Communications CenterA loud rush of air being expelled from the Aerial Commander was part of her reply. "That's like asking if the Autobots are doomed, or if Cybertron's a ruin. Of course we can keep the skies contested. Although, uncontested would be a much better description."OOC: I'm working on the assumption H-S said 'contested' on purpose; if it was a slip of the fingers, I'll edit as needed. -Inferna

OOC: is more than one character aloud?IC: (to self) "who's bright idea was it to come to this planet? there has to someplace better than this!"OOC: tomarrow i am going to be bored. feel free to hunt me down and start something if you like.

IC (Hunter-Seeker)Hunter-Seeker smirked. "And they say I'm the arrogant one. If your Seekers can keep them away from the Matrix Archipelago...well, I don't need to explain do I? We can starve them out." Hunter-Seeker paused again, considering something. "Of course, we will need Magmatrons approval for this. A formidable task."OOC: Yes. They are allowed Wheeljack.

IC: Alphonus Prime walked into New Iacon's command tower and retracted his face protection assembly. "Grindcore, sir! My skills are best directed towards taking Decepticon-held positions. I must know if there are any available tasks that remain undone, and Autobots to perform them. I can lead a squad to any required mission, and deal with what must be done." OOC: Gotta find something to do with this guy.

OOC: Well, Firestorm is hanging around the outskirts of New Iacon. She'd appreciate the company, though she might be rather awkward about it. IC: Burning Sky | New Kaon | Communications CenterThe smirk that had appeared on her faceplates faded a little. "Always a challenging endeavor, yes." The femme had had some challenging commanding officers before, but the Decepticon commanders ruled by fear and strength, instead of accomplishment like the Cybertronian Air Force leaders. Approaching Magmatron was always a delicate undertaking."-Inferna
